Mineralogy is n great study, but miner

not believe what to others is the simplest

low it? If you had you would under

and animal matter caused by water trick
ling down through tho ground. have

certainly, hundreds of years ago was rich
in mineral-would have been q bonanza
and which has never been robbed of its
deposits by man, but which is to-day
poor and worthless. 1t has been worked
out by the elements as other mines have
been worked out by men. In .such
places deep mining, below tho water line,

have seen places where the ore has
been left in cones, like the honey in hives.
This same work of decomposition BY the
elements accounts for barren streaks.
This decomposition and teaching is also
responsible for streaks of native silver,
the mineral coming in contact with an
opposite chemical. The whole subject is
easily explained and understood when one
has nature to give illustrations. It may
be somewhat indefinite when shown in
books, but not when shown in the ground.
When it comes to that, however, pcr-
son learns great deal in actual mining

WANTED A BUSINESS MANAGER.
The Labor Paper Finds Itself Unable to Pay
One-Half of q Reasonable Salary.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23-The creation and con-
duct of an ideal newspaper by the workngmen
proves to be perplexing but instructive task
Not long ago the board of managers of the
Leader were wrestling with the items in their
weekly bills due to the union made feature of
bogus" or as it is known elsewhere, s'horse"
When this difficulty with its practical lesson had
been surmounted the managers found thems elves
confronted by a familiar, but severer problem
IN the shape of business manager For of
course the board was wise enough not to ATTEMPT
to dispense with an individual to represent them
in the routine executive work of the day. For
certain reasons, not interesting ontside the
Leader Office, the board parted company with
the man who had held the position since the start
ing of the paper last fall Then the question arose
about getting successor. The first incumbent
had been paid $35 week, salary which the
werkingmen considered very good Some ten
tative overtures were made to one or two ex-
perienced newspaper men, and the board of man
ayers was considerably shaken up to find fhat
$35 was not "a marker" to what was demanded
for the position. The workingmen acknowledged
that they wanted frst-rate xxx man, and
when they were informed that $35 could not
cure one, they innocently and seriously asked:
What is the regular price for a newspaper man
agerq" evidently thinking that the rate was fixed
by union, or something of the sort, of mana
gers. They were more than ever staggered
when they were told that the salary varied with
the ability of the incumbent and that. more
over, the average paid by the Leaders rivals in
this city was somewhere between 1925 and 5000
a week. They could see that man could draw
such large salary unless he were worth all of
that and more to his paper, but it seemed ter
bills amount to but little more than 5000. And
SO it Is
